Pedro Renales (born May 15, 1997 in São Paulo, Brazil) is a Brazilian racing driver.

Racing Career

Renales made his motorsport debut in the 2016 Lupo GTI Championship driving for the Plus One Racing Engineering team. His first season was mildly successful, taking a single win at Oschersleben on his way to seventh in the championship.

Plus One would withdraw in 2017, so Renales switched to the Italian Scuderia Vittore outfit. Renales' season started excellently, taking podiums in his first three races - followed by consecutive wins in the USA and Canada. A third win in Belgium sealed the title for the Brazilian.

Whilst wrapping up the AutoReject GTi title, Renales was contracted by the Triumph Team Brasil squad to drive in the privateer class of the 2017 AutoReject Super Touring series. He would take a win in the last race of the season in Hong Kong.

There was a step up in power for Renales in 2018, with a switch to the International Procar Championship with Mediterranean Motorsport alongside former Grand Prix drivers James Davies and Ricardo Llosa. Racing in the B-Class with a BMW M3, Renales justified his signing by taking two wins in the series before its collapse in the summer of 2018.

A return to Plus One Racing beckoned in 2019, with Renales joining the works Ford team in the 2019 Touring Car World Series.
